Attempting to portray child safeguarding as a Bad Thing makes you look like a nonce. Why are you doing this, Arthur? Why have you spent the last 34 hours battling against keeping children safe? Weird hill to choose to die on. Especially publicly.

Section 28 was literally a child safeguarding law, that was the explicit justification for it used by conservatives -- LIKE EMMA NICHOLSON -- to argue for it

Things have deteriorated in the UK so rapidly that the LGB Alliance has within a year gone from "How dare you accuse us of supporting Section 28, that's vile slander to throw at any gay person" to "Yeah actually Section 28 is good"

That's really quite stupid slander - don't you know that the LGB Alliance are the main UK organisation for LGB rights? Suggesting they would support Section 28

Yes, they literally would, because they're a quisling front org for conservative homophobes and TERFs This is one of their directors in September, straight up saying Stonewall should be banned from schools because they "recruit"https://twitter.com/gracepetrie/status/1303622215028674561?s=20 …

Grace Petrie @gracepetrieAs so many people have warned and predicted for so long, transphobic activists are making the incredibly short journey from spreading fear and suspicion about trans people to spreading fear and suspicion about gay people.

And this piece you quote is the LGB Alliance objecting to gay conversion therapy. Are you telling me you SUPPORT gay conversion therapy now?? WTF??!

Encouraging kids to identify as gay at a young age is the exact opposite of encouraging conversion therapy

I’ll put my hand up right now and say that if I’d had comprehensive LGBTQ+ youth ed I would have known I was queer probably around 8-10 as it was I only figured it out through my own curiosity at 12/13, which is still early kids need to know LGBTQ+ people exist and are normal
